FCX User Types

In FCX system we have several types of users. Each type gives access to different functionality and possibilities in FCX. 

In the Employee record, we can manage the Employee's access type. This option is available for Administrators and HR Managers user groups.


Desktop access is enabled if the Employee has access to the desktop version of FCX system. The related Employee's user record is Active + Enabled. As a rule, a desktop user is always a web user too.


Web access type provides the right to work on the Dashboards Homepage in a web browser.

The Web user has settings: Closed + Disabled + Is Active WEB User.


Mobile — designate that Employee can work in the FCX Mobile App. He has a specified PIN to log in the app. Such Employee also has a user record which is Closed + Disabled.


When you enable Web or Mobile access for the first time for the Employee, who doesn't have a user, the system creates the user and set the settings according to access type. When you disable access type, the system doesn't delete the Employee's user, it just closes the access to any part of FCX: desktop, web or mobile part.


In the situation where you close an Employee, the system closes the Employee's access as well: disables mobile and clears PIN, disables WEB access and sends request to disable Desktop access if any.






Desktop User

FCX Desktop User runs a full desktop version of FieldClix System. This type of user has access to many and various dashboards, references, tasks, reports and so on.


As we said, FCX Desktop Users can also work in FCX Web Portal. The credentials are the same as in the desktop version of the system.

2. Next, click on Enable Desktop Access and send a request to FCX Support to generate a user for the new Employee.


3. FCX Support will generate a user and give you the user's login. Once this is done, Desktop and Web access is ON in the Employee card.


4. Add the Employee's User to the required groups to give access to references, reports, dashboards. To do this use Manage button for Desktop User.


5. Send the login to the Employee.


6. The password is set the first time a user logs in the FCX desktop.

Web User

Web Users — users with limited access only use FCX Web. 




To provide access to the FCX Web, you should create a Web User for an Employee. Web User credentials are specified in its generation.

Manage Web User


Click to Manage Web User and select:


a. Change Login — to set Custom Login. The system  generates default Login User = [Instance Name + Employee record ID]

You can also copy the password to the clipboard — check off the appropriate box in the dialog window.




If the Employee's email or phone number are specified, relevant checkboxes are marked. The Email is populated from Work Email, and the text is sent to the number, which is defined in the Employee's Cell Phone.
